Its rare, but occasionally Ill drop by a restaurant and come across a peanut butter burger.
On a meat burger.
I may be behind the herd, but this sounds like a trick to me.
Thats not fair of me though, is it?
As they say in the world of earnest food exploration, dont knock it til ya try it.
I wasnt totally wrong, but a tad circumspect I guess.
Peanut butter has a powerful flavor.
If it has its druthers, it will command the stage and the entire roof of your mouth.
Peanut butter, especially the unsweetened kind, has an earthy, roasted flavor, and a subtle sweetness.
It plays well with fats and spices.
Peanut butter isnt going to save a bad burger.
Furthermore, peanut butter is sticky and can leave your mouth feeling dry.
Season it well, and cook it with love.
I also tried tomato and pickles on my burgerfor scienceand while they both work, pickles are better.
Dont be afraid.I tried one burger with Crazy Richards crunchy, unsalted, unsweetened peanut butter.
I also tried a burger with Jif and all its sugar-boosted, hydrogenated glory.
Im shocked to say it, but they were both great.
Should peanut butter go on burgers?
I believe this well-loved condiment is more versatile than I gave it credit for.
When youre ready for your next food adventure, peanut-butter-topped burgers dont disappoint.
